Wait, we've actually signed him? If so, that gives us time to get a DM. We won't get a DM. I think this is it for January.

According to Radio 5 live it happened in the last 90mins, but not confirmed until it's on Arsenal.com

I get the feeling that we're not finished in this transfer window yet <ok>
 
Geoff Arsenal has said we've failed in our efforts to bring in a forward, but he thinks a CB and GK are possibilities.
 
I think we wanted Villa and that Barca are total ****s and won't sell him until the summer!
 
Some verified singer on Twitter has changed their name to Martin Samuel (the journalist) and has spent the last hour tweeting bullshit rumours and confusing everyone <laugh>
 
Spanish football writer Andy West: "It looks like the deal to bring Malaga left-back Nacho Monreal to Arsenal is drawing closer, with various reports stating that the Spain international has completed his medical at the Emirates.

"This would be a very good signing if it goes through. Monreal is an excellent ball-playing full back with a solid all-round game both defensively and going forward, and at the age of 26 he's coming into his prime.

"The only negative is that he'll be cup tied for the Champions' League but, if the reported fee of around £8m is accurate, it's an excellent long-term deal.

"It's also worth bearing in mind that Monreal will be teaming up again with his former Malaga teammate, Santi Cazorla, which should significantly help the settling-in process both on and off the pitch.

"It is believed that Arsenal had been in talks with Malaga to sign Monreal in the summer, but the injury suffered by Kieran Gibbs during Wednesday's game against Liverpool brought the deal forward.

"Incidentally, Malaga have moved quickly to line up a replacement - Vitorino Antunes from Portuguese side Paços de Ferreira."
